MONORAIL MR: Stable processes always assured
Engineering360 News Desk | August 21, 2020MONORAIL MR 4x roller-guided profiled linear guideways from Schneeberger offer maximum quality and guaranteed functionality. Outstanding degrees of rail straightness, accurate machining and high mechanical load capacity distinguish MONORAIL MR profiled guideways as an efficient, extremely robust quality solution for demanding applications subject to stringent demands for accuracy, such as for tooling machines.
The product portfolio is comprised of 23 different combinations of rail size and shape as well as 33 different carriage configurations, offering the greatest possible design flexibility. MONORAIL MR can optionally be
Source: Schneeberger equipped with a tried-and-tested integrated distance measuring system, thus contributing significantly to the total cost of ownership.
With experience gained from installing thousands of guideways in the field, Schneeberger engineers have given MONORAIL MR 4S carriages a comprehensive design upgrade and further improved serviceability in terms of compatibility and cross wiper replacements. Pressure-tight lubrication channels are included in a body optimized for rigidity and featuring a durable front plate.
The second-generation M4S trolley is downward compatible. Guideways installed in the field can therefore be upgraded to the latest technology at any time.
MONORAIL MR profiled guideways are designed for speeds of up to 3 m/s and can be accelerated by up to 50 m/s2. The carriage and rail bodies are made from high-grade hardened steel and specially shaped rollers are used as rolling elements. The end result is a system with high static and dynamic load carrying capacity together with long service life.
